muqad~asN * Hallowed, or sanctified: consecrated: purified: ] blessed. (M.) ― -b2- Almuqad~asu , applied to God: see Alqud~uwsu . ― -b3- Albayotu Almuqad~asu , (K,) and bayotu Almuqad~asi , (S, K,) and [more commonly] bayotu ↓ Almaqodisi , (M, A, K,) which [i. e. Almaqodis ] is either formed from muqad~asN by rejecting the augmentative letter, or is a subst. not formed from a verb, like as Sb says of Almanokibu , (M,) [signifying The hallowed, or consecrated, or purified, or blessed, dwelling; or the dwelling of the hallowed, &c.; are appellations of Jerusalem; ] also called ↓ Alqudosu [which is the name generally given to it in the present day] and ↓ Alqudusu ; (A, K;) because one is purified therein from sins, or because of the blessing that is therein. (TA.) ― -b4- AlA^aroDu Almuqad~asapu The [ hallowed, or consecrated, or] purified land; (S, Msb, K;) or the pure land; (Fr;) or the blessed land; (IAar;) is an appellation of Damascus and Palestine and part of the Jordan: (Fr:) or Syria: (M:) and ↓ A^aroDu Alqudusi [or ↓ A^aroDu Alqudosi ] signifies the same.

muqad~isN * A Christian monk [or any Christian or a Jew] who comes [or goes or performs pilgrimage or has performed pilgrimage ] to Alqudos or bayot Almaqodis [i. e. Jerusalem ]: (A:) or a Christian monk: (K:) or a [ learned Jew or other, such as is called ] Habor . (M, TA.) Imra-el-Keys says, describing dogs and a [wild] bull, faA^adorakonahu yaA^oxu*ona biAls~aAqi waAln~asaA kamaA $aboraqa AlwilodaAnu vawoba Almuqad~isi And they (the dogs) overtook him, (namely, the bull,) seizing the shank and the sciatic vein, and tearing his skin, as the children of the Christians tear the garment of the monk that has come from bayot Almaqodis , [or Jerusalem ] for the purpose of obtaining a blessing from it: thus the verse is found in the handwriting of Aboo-Sahl; but in all the copies of the S, we find vawoba Almuqad~asiY , with Y .
